Recently and undeniably hailed in ROLLING STONE as one of The 50 Greatest Live Acts Right Now, QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE will make its historic first Bridge School Concert appearance this year. QOTSA will appear in the all star bill topped by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young at the 27th Annual Bridge School Benefit Concerts on Saturday, October 26th and Sunday, October 27th at Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View, CA.
Tickets for the Bridge School concerts go on sale Friday, September 13th at 10am at Livenation.com, the Shoreline Amphitheatre box office, all Ticketmaster outlets, or by calling (800) 745-3000.
Joshua Homme and crew’s Bridge School debut is the latest milestone in a 2013 rife with firsts: the still fresh out of the oven …Like Clockwork (Matador) provided QOTSA a first-ever U.S. #1 album, while the band’s world tour has seen its first headline appearances at legendary venues from New York’s Barclays Center to Colorado’s Red Rocks Amphitheater.
QOTSA’s Bridge School set will unveil new dimensions of the …Like Clockwork instant classics that have been garnering the most over the top raves of Homme and crew’s career, presumably alongside exclusive-to-the-evening arrangements of gems spanning the QUEENS’ 15-year odyssey. As reports from the world at large continue to verify, Homme and cohorts Troy Van Leeuwen, Dean Fertita, Michael Shuman and Jon Theodore are delivering the world’s premiere live rock show nightly on their continually expanding world tour in support of …Like Clockwork. These QUEENS will be the belles of the Bridge School ball and their coming out is guaranteed to be nothing short of momentous.
Meanwhile on the opposite coast: The Kills have been confirmed as special guests for QOTSA’s December 14 extravaganza at Brooklyn, New York’s Barclays Center. Tickets to the the QOTSA/Kills holiday gala are now on sale at http://bit.ly/qotsaBK.
